Abstract
The invention relates to a two-stage pressure atomizer nozzle with a nozzle body (30) having a mixing chamber (39) which is connected to an outside space via a nozzle outlet bore (33), and with a first feed duct (42) with a feed bore (41) for a liquid (37) to be atomized, through which feed bore said liquid (37) can be fed, free of swirling and under pressure, at least one further feed duct (36) for a portion of the liquid (37) to be atomized or for a second liquid (37') to be atomized opening into the chamber (39), through which feed duct said liquid (37, 37') can be fed under pressure and with swirling. The feed bore (41) of the first feed duct (42) lies on one axis (34) with the nozzle outlet bore (33). It is defined in that the outlet-side diameter (d.sub.a) of the nozzle outlet bore (33) is at most as large as the diameter (d.sub.z) of the feed bore (41) and the length (L) of the nozzle outlet bore (33) is at least twice to at most ten times the outlet-side diameter (d.sub.a) of the nozzle outlet bore (33).
